Lol.
Today was so
not exciting.
The whole class went to a "pottery place" (at
Jurong, I think).
We were first shown the "Dragon Kiln" (which actually did not look like a dragon, so I think the person/group who created it must be blind).
It was so long that it would have taken me 10 seconds to walk its length (30 metres).
We went
inside it (wow) and Arvin went, "Oh sh*t I scared later I heat up the kiln because I'm so hot."
Which I continued, "Never mind
lah, got me can already. Can cool down the whole place."
And Alvin was bending his head down, while saying, "
Walau I too tall already
lah!!
OMG Yi Da don't come in here, no space
lah!!!"
So off we went to the clay throwing part.
It was weird (I shall not mention anything else because it's too weird to be mentioned).
Then we went to watch a video, which the "instructor" said it was "short and sweet about clay".
The quality of the video (which I think was 10 years old) was
superb and better than Channel 5's High Definition quality.
The video also had a wide range of colours, including white, gray, black, white, gray, black, white, gray and black.
Then we had our free time, which we spent going to the "small little pond by the side".
(Credits : The instructor)
There was a little caged hut, so I went there to check it out.
What I did check out was 3 dogs (1 beige 2 black) and that terribly stinky smell.
So I went off ahead with
Zabidi, Wei
Keong, Jun
Quan and Alvin to a little plank which acted like a bridge.
I crossed it and on the other side, I swear I heard a noise that sounded like "
hoo-
hoo-
hoo-
hoo-
hoo".
The noise probably explained why there were so many signs around the area which said "Beware of wild monkeys. Please do not feed the wild monkeys."
As we walked on the path back, Jun
Quan saw a sculpture (which I can only say that it was a "work of art of the human body").
We exclaimed in horror while Jun
Quan was thoroughly enjoying "appreciating" the sculpture.
We went back and told Mr
Ng our "experience". The following was our conversation :
Us :
OMG Mr
Ng there's really PORN at the POND!!!
Him : Of course what... The pond sure have pond
mah...
Us :
Nonono, we really saw PORN!!!
Him : Yeah
lah, of course you saw the pond at the pond, right?
Us : No, we saw PORN!! P-O-R-N, PORN!!!
Him : ..
Him : Never mind
lah, let's go back.
So we went to get some snacks, which for Chester, meant a $3.90 Magnum ice-cream, for Arvin, a $0.60 ice-cream and for me, a $1.00 can of drink and a scalded finger.
We then proceeded to the "studio" to make some sculptures.
Another "instructor" told us that the clay would dry up and harden, due to our body heat.
Of course, this made Arvin say, "
Aaah, I'm so hot that I will make my clay harden!! But never mind, 'cause Aaron beside me, counter my heat. Like Yin and
Ang."
Then Jun
Quan said, "What Yin and
Ang?!? It's Yin and
Yang lah!!"
Arvin : "But
Yi Da said it was Yin and
Ang leh!!"
Yi Da : "I where got say?!?!
Haha Arvin you
NOOB, what Yin and
Ang?!?"
So everybody laughed at him.
After that, we went back to the bus.
Just as we were getting on the bus, Chester took out his "$3.90 Magnum ice-cream" from his bag (which was quite melted and disgusting) and started licking it.
"OMG CHESTER YOU HAVEN'T EAT FINISH THAT ICE-CREAM YET AR?!?!"
On the way back to Anderson Secondary, the "Singapore Expo Food Fair Exhibition" was
inevitably re-enacted on the bus.
So after that, I had lunch at school and went back home...
Blah blah blah...
That was pretty much the Dragon Kiln excursion.
